Habitat The Nuts & Bolts: News for Our Partners

September 2013

Note from the Director of Resource Development   Greetings Habitat Build Partners!   Do you hear what I hear? I hear the hum of power tools working to complete homes in several St. Louis neighborhoods.   It is hard to believe that the first day of fall has come and gone, but to five St. Louis families this fall will have a major impact on their lives for years to come.   With your assistance, five homebuyers will receive keys to their new homes in less than two weeks! That's right, your Build Sponsorship donations have helped raise over $920,100 in cash ($1,150,000 goal) and $284,400 in-kind ($250,000 goal). We are 80 percent of the way to our cash goal.   We cannot celebrate just yet. We have another $230,000 to raise. This outstanding balance will help us serve at least three more families. It is ONLY with your support that we can reach and exceed this goal and serve families this year and beyond. If you haven't already, please consider becoming a Build Partner today. Contact HFHSL Resource Development staff at development@habitatstl.org to learn how!   Please keep reading to learn more about....

We need your help   <![if !vml]><![endif]>Dear Ronald, Over the last week, major flooding and flash flooding has debilitated regions of the West. Thousands have been forced to evacuate their homes and seek shelter. And overflowing streams and flooded roads continue to pose a major hazard to fleeing families and emergency responders in the area. The Red Cross is currently in Colorado, New Mexico and Texas supporting emergency shelters and providing food and support for those impacted. In just the past week, the Red Cross community has helped us provide vital relief to thousands affected by flooding across several states. You can help people affected by disasters big and small by making a donation to American Red Cross Disaster Relief. Though the rainfall is finally slowing down in impacted states, the Red Cross will be there over the weeks and months to come. You can feel good knowing that your donation helps the Red Cross prepare for, respond to and help people recover from nearly 70,000 disasters each year. If you or someone you know needs help please contact us. Thank you for being a part of the American Red Cross. And thank you for taking our mission to heart – to relieve suffering wherever and whenever it happens.
